The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 744

Sylvia's POV:

The next morning, Rufus sent a car to pick me up before breakfast. I hesitated for a moment before I decided to go back and see him.

On the way, I stared out the window of the car and wondered how I was going to face him today.

Although I had tried my best to clear up the misunderstanding last night, I wasn't sure if he really bought it, and there was definitely still some awkwardness between us.

I sighed helplessly as I realized how hard it was for me to act like I didn't care about Rufus. How could I hide my feelings of love for him?

As soon as I was with him, I wanted to kiss him, hug him and be close to him. If I could have it my way, I would stick to him like glue and never let him go.

As I set foot in the palace in low spirits, I saw Rufus sitting at the large dining table, reading a newspaper. I noticed his furrowed eyebrows relaxed when he saw me.

He stood up and pulled out a chair for me to sit on.

I peeked at him and found his usual expression, apart from a small cut on his chin. He must have accidentally cut himself shaving.

"Milk or juice?"

"What?" His voice suddenly snapped me out of my thoughts. "Oh... Juice, please."

Rufus slowly pushed the jug of juice in front of me. Although he didn't say anything, I noticed the corners of his mouth tilt upwards, silently expressing his good mood.

I took a bite of a sandwich and kept silent. In truth, I was annoyed at myself because I was supposed to act like a cold bitch from today, but I failed completely.

"Don't just eat bread. Have some juice." Rufus ' voice was so gentle and soothing to my ears that I couldn't be unkind to him.

I sighed and put a piece of baked sausage on his plate. "Are you going to be busy today?"

A smile appeared on his face again when he saw the baked sausage. Then, he answered, in a voice that sound several times happier than before, "Yes, I'll be busy today. Is there anything you want to do?"
